Transferrin Receptor antibody (FITC)

Catalog No. ABIN118243

Product Details anti-Transferrin Receptor Antibody (FITC)

Target: Transferrin Receptor (TFRC) (Transferrin Receptor (p90, CD71) (TFRC))

Reactivity: Mouse

Host: Rat

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This Transferrin Receptor antibody is conjugated to FITC

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Specificity: This antibody recognises the Mouse CD71 marker, the transferrin receptor. Stains dividing cells, and can be used to distinguish resting from activated T cells.

Purification: Ion Exchange Chromatography.

Immunogen: Concanavilin A activated mouse spleen cells. Spleen cells from immunised DA rat were fused with cells of the Y3/Ag1.2.3 rat myeloma cell line.

Clone: YTA 74-4

Isotype: IgG2a

Application Details

Application Notes: Flow Cytometry: The Fc region of monoclonal antibodies may bind non-specifically to cells expressing low affinity Fc receptors.
Other applications not tested.
Optimal dilutions are dependent on conditions and should be determined by the user.

Background: CD71 antigen expression is low on normal resting lymphocytes and is expressed on all cells upon activation. The transferrin receptor is essential for iron transport into proliferating cells, such as mitogen-activated and alloantigen-activated lymphoblasts. The transferrin receptor is also present on early erythroid cells but is lost as reticulocytes differentiate into mature erythrocytes.Synonyms: TfR1, Transferrin receptor protein 1, p90
